Episode description

Feeders, diapers, and task lists oh my. At some point during the pandemic, it appears that any progress we had made in our choice of words to describe tasks that happen every in a care facility have fallen flat on their face. Why?

Grab your favorite drink and join us for another episode as Teepa and Greg discuss.
